In Feb '05 I checked the stats for a mainstream site I have and noticed a big jump in traffic, after looking at the stats I noticed they were coming from Google and the search terms "belinda" and "belinda carlise". My site was ranked 1 for these terms yet I had nothing at all with those words on my site (I double checked and triple checked).
So I get chatting to my host and asked if he hosted any belinda related sites on any of his boxes, and yes he did and it so happened it was on the same box my site was on (shared hosting). This ranking in google lasted about a week then dropped out. We both could not explain what happened in this situation. What I do know is that my sites with this host do very well on search engine results with very few backlinks.
